COLIN LEWIN, Arsenal’s Head of Medical Services, has reached a settlement with the club that sees him depart after 23 years. His role has been taken by club doctor Gary O’Driscoll, who will head up a new-look medical department.

DARREN BURGESS, the new Director of High Performance at Arsenal, has called on practitioners to “stick together and not publicly comment on what happens at other clubs” following a tweet from his West Brom counterpart.
